Telling the Time - Before and After [Designed for Online]

(0)
This worksheet is designed to be used as a Google Doc so children can complete it online, however, it could also be printed and used that way instead. LO’s: I can tell the time before and after a given time. I can tell the differences in time. It’s made up of two parts… Part A involves two clocks (a mixture of digital and analogue). One is the start time and the second is the finish time. Children have to find out the difference in times. An example is given at the start. Part B involves a series of word problems. Children have to find out how much time before or after a given event. The worksheet finishes with a riddle bonus question. It’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.

This worksheet is designed to be used as a Google Doc so children can complete it online, however, it could also be printed and used that way instead. It’s made up of an example and 10 different clocks, for which the children have to tell the time as both numbers and words. Before the questions are several pointers which will help with telling the time properly. This question sheet works as a nice follow up to an initial lesson introducing time. It’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.
A3 Board Game Template [Fully Editable]

A3 Board Game Template [Fully Editable]

(0)
This colourful A3 board game is fully editable. You can change the contents of any of any square on the board. There are so many ways you an adapt this for different lessons. Here are a few examples… a) Maths Write calculations in each box for the children to solve b) Reading Write tricky phonics words or as I have done with this other uploads on here, write word endings and beginnings. You could also have the children use the word in context in a sentence or explain its definition etc. c) Science Write questions relating to your topic in the box, or add in question spaces where children have to pick up a card with a question on. You could even get the class to create their own question cards. All you need for the game is a dice and between 2-5 players. Each of the ideas above follow the same style game play. That is, if you are able to solve the problems or read the words in the space you land on, then you are able to remain there. If not, then you go back to where you were before you rolled. You can also get creative and add in your own special spaces such as miss a go or roll again. Or you can get really creative and add in special reasons. For example, you helped a friend in need, move forward four spaces, or you fell off your bike and broke your head, miss a go. etc.

Word Warrior - Reading Board Game [CVCC & CCVC Words]

(0)
This fully editable board game adds fun for children who are learning to read. For this package, I’ve split it into two games. The first is a set of CVCC words and the second is a set of CCVC words. There are 21 spaces in which you can add any word you wish for children to practice reading. The board game is also A3 size so the words are easy to see. The idea is that 2-4 children take turns rolling the dice. If they are able to read the word that they land on then they can remain there, if not then they move back to where they just were before they rolled. This is one of my personal favourite resources, not just because both I and the children love it, but also because you can enter in any word set you like. I even play this with my son and it really encourages him to focus on pronouncing the words as perfectly as he possibly can.

Writing Limericks Examples and Worksheet

Writing Limericks Examples and Worksheet

(0)
This worksheet gives basic information about limericks - what is a limerick, how is it made, what patterns does it follow? Two examples are then provided. Here is one of them… There once was a girl called Jane, who thought she had a really big brain. She thought she was cool, standing in a puddle of drool, but really, she was just insane. The first task involves the children highlighting the rhyming words and counting the syllables for each line. Following this, the second task is for the children to create their own limerick. Ideas for sentence starters are provided. The final task is for the children to swap with their friends so they can read each other’s poems and give constructive feedback. It’s also great to have children share them with the whole class. They generally enjoy writing them, especially their silly nature and I love reading them! So long as they are not anything about cats, hats and rats… that gets a bit tiresome.
Conductors and Insulators Worksheet and Short Experiment

Conductors and Insulators Worksheet and Short Experiment

(0)
This worksheet comprises of a fill in the blanks paragraph all about electrical conductors and insulators, a space for a experiment setup diagram and a results table. The children are expected to complete the fill in the blanks activity first. You could help them out by providing a word bank on the board/projector. They should then draw a circuit which will enable them to test the conductivity of different materials. For this you will ideally need some batteries, wires and either a motor, LED or Light bulb. I usually have children work in pairs for the experiment but complete their own worksheet. Before testing the materials the children have selected they need to make a prediction or hypothesis about whether their material will conduct electricity or not. *This document is fully editable so you can make changes where you please. *
Table or Pixel Art Using Microsoft Word

Table or Pixel Art Using Microsoft Word

(0)
This is a standalone activity I do in ICT to help chidlren learn how to create tables tables in Microsoft Word, select cells and shade cells with different colours. The children could even add text to a cell as part of the art or merge cells. In this document are four ready made examples of what sort of table/pixel art they could create whilst mastering these skills. You could provide them as examples or even provide the table outline as a template for the children to work on, although if they’re able to, it’s better to have them create their own table.

Stranded of a Deserted Island - What Three Things Would You Take?

(0)
This fun activity lets children explore that classic deserted island scenario. It presents pictures of 16 items from which the children have to choose three to take with them to be stranded with. They must explain verbally or in writing why they have chosen these items. The children could even suggest why other items would not be worth having. It’s worth encouraging the children to think of alternate uses for the items they have chosen too. This works both as an individual activity and as a group activity to promote effective communication between members.
Airport Role-play Conversations

Airport Role-play Conversations

(0)
This pack comprises of six short airport role-play conversations. We use it to add an element of drama and fun to our connected learning topic, Flying High. Most of the role-plays are quite funny in some way but include common language to each situation. The number of children involved in each varies from 2-4 people. Here are the titles for each of the role-plays to give you a better idea, but please see the preview for a glimpse of the content. a) The Pre-Flight Safety Demonstration b) The Crying Baby c) The Sick Passengers d) The Fast Take-Off e) The Rough Landing f) The Scared Passenger I hope your children enjoyed performing these as much as ours do! The document is fully editable so it’s possible for you or even the children to change them.
Fully Editable A3 Board Game Template

Fully Editable A3 Board Game Template

(0)
This is a fully editable A3 board game template which comes in both colour and black and white and also with a set of different sized question cards. Every part of the board game is editable. You can move parts where you like, type in the playing squares, adjust titles etc. All the children need are some dice and counters (which could be anything from a block to a coin). The question cards can be typed up by you or the children or you could print blank ones and they could write their own. The great thing about this game is it’s versatility. We use it to review anything from comprehension questions in literacy to word problems in maths. If a child lands on a question space, they select a question card and if they answer it correctly then they roll again. Also included on the board are snakes (for going down) and ladders (for climbing up). I’ve also included a few other fun ideas like a hospital square and different scenarios for landing on a particular square. Needless to say, the children love playing it and it’s also fun for them to edit it and create their own if there’s enough time.

Bar Modeling - Mario Maths Blocks
SherwenSherwen

Bar Modeling - Mario Maths Blocks

(0)
I designed this worksheet to review the basic methods of bar modeling and used blocks from the Super Mario games to add a little more interest for the children. The worksheet is split into four parts. Each has a question, a bar model and a space for the children to do their working and answer underneath. All the questions are also Mario related and use relatively simple and round numbers. The objective is to encourage children to use bar modeling so they can help visualise what is required in a word problem, ultimately to help them choose the correct operation and solve the problem. Here are the four parts and the required operations for each… a) Part-part whole (addition) b) Comparison (subtraction) c) Equal Parts of a whole (multiplication) d) Equal Parts of a whole (division) It’s worth following up each model with children drawing their own for another example question. Please note that this worksheet is a fully editable document, so you can change any of the questions. And with some basic table editing skills, you can change the bar models by copying and pasting the different blocks where you need them.
New Year's Resolutions Worksheet

New Year's Resolutions Worksheet

(0)
This worksheet allows children to write down an idea and action plan for a New Year’s resolution. I do this with my children each year but encourage them to only choose one resolution, which is relevant and challenging, but not too much so. Once they have decided, they then write a detailed action plan for how to see it through. We then revisit what they wrote at a later date to check on their progress. Part A) What is your New Year’s Resolution? Example sentence starters: This year, I really want to… I want to be better at… I want to learn how to… Part B) What is your action plan? What steps will you do to make sure your resolution is successful?
States of Matter Worksheet
SherwenSherwen

States of Matter Worksheet

(0)
This worksheet is comprised of a table for children to fill in information about the three states of matter - solids, liquids and gases. The first row is for the names of each. The second row has a beaker outline for children to draw the arrangement of atoms or molecules for that particular state of matter. The third row is to describe in writing the basic properties of each state of matter and the final row is for examples of each. I use this worksheet in class to reinforce information about the states of matter. The diagrams are usually copied from the board or at least a diagram from the internet. For the rest of the content, I see how much the children can fill in independently before presenting the full set of information needed to complete the worksheet. Using the children as actual atoms is a fun addition to help explain the properties of each state of matter. For example, a group of children can stand in an orderly grid, shaking (vibrating) on the spot. Another child can act as a heat source and when they get near, the atoms start to vibrate faster before breaking off and then moving around, but only within the carpeted area. This can then continue through to gases and then reversed. It’s also a great way to introduce the names for the changes in state, which could also be added onto the worksheet with arrows showing the direction of change for evaporation, condensation, freezing and melting.

Times Table Spinner Wheel Template

Times Table Spinner Wheel Template

(0)
This is a spinning wheel which is made of two parts, an top wheel which has a window and a door and a bottom wheel which has the questions and answers on respectively. Instructions: a) Print out the template on card. b) Children then write an operation, for example, 3x6 in the inner section, and write the answer in the outer section. Complete each part of the pie with other operations. c) Cut out the sections of other top wheel except the dotted line which will be a fold for the door. (You may need a cuter or Stanley knife for this). d) Use a push pin to attach the wheels together so they will spin. Decorate the wheels and then cut out. Usage: With the little flap door closed, spin or turn the top wheel to reveal an operation. Try and answer it before opening the flap to reveal the correct answer. *I usually use this for children to review a the more difficult of the timestables but it could be adapted for other short question and answers that require a bit of rote learning. It just makes it all that more fun to do. *
